So here's how I spent my weekend...saving shirts! : ) My husband wears a shirt to work everyday and I have finally found why that is a good thing...I can make super soft and beautiful pillow covers out of the used and discarded shirts (i.e. those with e.g. a hole on the elbow or a spot on the sleeve). It's a great way to make a second life product; the fabric is of good quality and since the shirts have been worn they are soft to the touch. Take a look at these, I think they turned out great!

They will probably end up here, i.e. in the bedroom. Makes great decor pillows matching the existing duvet cover and pillows. Throw a couple of these into the mix and you have a very chic boutique hotel feeling to your bed ; ) Hmmmm....now if I could only charge my guests.... ; )

Welcome to PilLove

Welcome to my wonderful world of color and textile fetish! I started this blog to document the process of my business - designing and selling textile based products from all over the world. The business no longer exists but I keep doing posts on what I love the most: interior decorating with lot's and lot's of color.

I hope you find this little color crazy bubble of mine inspiring enough to stick around for a while. Make yourself a nice cup of coffee get out the cookies and the nice chocolate that you've hidden for that special occasion and make sure to tell me what's on your mind. Enjoy browsing/reading/writing. Love C.

Want to share all this lovelyness

Enjoy my products up close

I would love to give you and your friends the opportunity to have a look at my products up close. It helps to look at them, feel the fabric, squeeze a pillow or two, look at the quality and finish of the sewing etc. So if you've ever thought about stopping by my showroom or maybe you'd like to book a Saturday afternnoon with some friends. I'd love to be able to give you that service as it is the best way to shop! I'll even make sure your kids have plenty of toys to keep them occupied ; ) Please let me know if you'd like to stop by and have a coffee or a glas of wine and shop for that sofa or bed of yours!
